The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1887-03-05

"A. D. Tourtiltott, representing
the large wholesale spice and tea
house of A. Schilling & Co., of San
Francisco, "did up" the town this
week.
Persons in need of harness of
any description, or anything in the
harness line, can make money by
calling at J. P. Pehey's harness
shop. He carries fine stock.
DIR. Isham went to Payette
last Wednesday to minister unto
Charlie Randall, who was suffering
from a dislocated shoulder. Mr..
Johnson accompanied him.
Two new business houses start
ed in Caldwell this week; another
has goods on the road and will start
up as soon as they arrive, and two
more are hunting rooms. Still they
come.
Judge Beatty sold his fine
team. Robert Bonner says he
wouldn't take 100000 for his
Maud S., but we don't think the
Judge received over half that
amount.
The Improvement Company
has ordered additional trees and
grass seed for the Caldwell parks,
and will do much to make those
spots "bloom and BLOSSOM" etc.
this season.
Little & Co. have just received
car load of Golfers white lead in
124, 25 and so pound packages,
linseed oil, turpentine and lubricat-
ing oils. Call and price goods be-
fore purchasing.
Some careless drummers who
were using the dining room OF the
Pacific Hotel for q sample room,
left the fire in such manner as to
fire the house. 1t was discovered
in time to be extinguished, but it
was close call.
Facts are stubborn things.
This is true not only in science,
but also in trade. When Isham d
Co. say that they have the freshest
and best line Of drugs in town, they
state a fact that is hard to get
around, and one that proves very
stubborn indeed to their competi-
tors. Not only do they carry good
goods, but they sell them very low
for cash. The druggists we'll
known 500 per cent has to give way
to reasonable margins where such
men as 1sham g. Go. are in bust
ness
Mr.. Henry Sprague arrived in
Caldwell last Saturday, from Ne
braska, with twelve of the finest
stations that ever shifted the Idaho
breezes. They are handsome fell
lows and no mistake. There are
four imported horses in the lot.
The stock is Norman and English
Draft, and their respective weights
range from 1900 to 2,10O pounds,
the one weighing 1900 being but
yearling. Mr.. Sprague has taken
four of them over on the Payette;
and if the Payette stock growers
are alive to their own interests, they
will not allow him to bring any
back. The remaining eight may
be seen at Campbell & Moudy's
corral. Our horse growers should
not fail to see them and an invest
ment in such stock as this would
prove profitable. When stock
growing was the only industry Of
this country, the cayuse was in
dispensable. But now that farm
ing is radidly driving the stock
men back into the hills, we need
a better grade of horses. We hope
Mr.. Sprague will not be permitted
to take any back with him.
MIR. P. A. Devers arrived last
Tuesday morning from his eastern
visit. He had glorious time while
back and enjoyed himself hugely
in spite of the cold weather. But
Pat is to cnterprising and energetic
to stay in the east long; too
much ''moss" for man of his cal
ibre. But they must be the very
prince of entertainers back there,
as they actually made Mr.. Devers
forget what he went after. lie
started from here firmly resolved to
